Re: TDC Colorist (II not I)

[fj834@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Dr. George A. Themelis)]

For the record, when I recently recommended a TDC Colorist to a member
of the list as a user-friendly camera, I specified TDC Colorist II. I've
used one of those (currently is being used in Belgium) and found it
surprisingly modern for stereo standards.  The Rodenstock lenses were very
sharp, perhaps as sharp as the Realist's ;) (just kidding, they might
have been sharper but after a point more sharpness does not do much for
me.)  I have not tried a TDC Colorist I.

The camera (TDC Colorist II) has a combined viewefiner/rangefinder and 
takes modern electronic flash without any modifications/alterations.
It's the type of camera that I could give to my wife and not worry about 
it ;)  I got mine after Lattie Smart's recommendation and even though I was
very happy with it, I decided to sell it and concentrate on my first love, 
i.e. the Realist.
